Hannah Chapman Equine Sports Massage
Fully qualified and insured equine sports massage therapist based in Harrogate
I qualified in 2016 after training under the Lantra approved Equine Massage Academy gaining a distinction in the level 5 qualification as well as a Bsc (hons) degree in equine therapy and rehabilitation. Attending regular CPD events allows me to keep my knowledge up to date as well as learning new techniques. Also a member of the EMA providing me with the newest research.
Equine sports massage is the therapeutic application of a range of massage techniques applied to the horse with the aim of relieving pain and tension. Incorporating regular sports massage session into the care routine of the horse may also minimize the risk of injury. Few human athletes would compete without preparing their bodies using massage and stretching exercises therefore nor should a horse. As well passive stretching is used to keep joints and muscles working to full capacity.
During a appointment I will assess your horse both statically and dynamically whilst obtaining background information to help me understand the problems you may be having. A thorough palpation helps me assess the areas that need addressing before the massage therapy takes place. A typical appointments takes around 90 minutes. There may need to be a rest period of 24-48hrs post session and exercises may be given to carry out between appointments.
